How did you handle Nausea after sleeve



Recommended Posts

I was had the Band to sleeve on Friday. Got home late last night. Overall doing ok except for on and off Nausea. I have taken the Med for Nausea. But doesn't seem to help. I'm getting in fluids. Also stomach growling on and off. I can't even think of starting Protein Drinks. Nothing seems to taste god.

Any suggestions

Hi. What worked for me was walking. Walking too my nausea away.

Walking helps. Sipping Water very slowly too. The stomach growling is normal. The first few days I couldn't stomach Protein drinks either. For now, just staying hydrated is your main focus. My doctor advised me that as long as I could get 3-4 cups of liquid in that's enough to stay hydrated. I hope you start feeling better soon.

I had the sleeve 4/4/17 and for 3 weeks had severe nausea, was on zofran, compazine and the scolpmaine patch, and still was nauseated, it did get better, I walked, I sipped, I threw up, drank broth and tea which helped some. Keep motivated it will pass,

Grin and bear it?

It gets better. For the nausea scopolamine patch and zofran.

The stomach will growl and gurgle and talk to you. Maybe forever. Mine still does at four years out. You get used to it. It doesn't mean anything is wrong. Sometimes it means you're full. Sometimes it means it digesting. You get used to it.

Food is fuel. It doesn't need to be appealing or taste good all the time. Sometimes you just eat to give your body what it needs to function instead of for pleasure. Just do it.

I personally didn't focus on Protein till after almost a week nausea gets better after fews days. Just be on top of with the meds that's what I did. I never waited to get nausea before taking a pill.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
